Δ = 4
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{4}=2$
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(22)-2}{2*1}=\frac{-24}{2}
=-12
$
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(22)+2}{2*1}=\frac{-20}{2}
=-10
